Back in 2005, when Brighton-based sextet the Go! Team's debut album Thunder, Lightning, Strike was nominated for the Mercury Music prize, their competition came from the likes of Hard-Fi, Kaiser Chiefs and the Magic Numbers. Against such a pallid backdrop, their neon blast of ramshackle pop stood out a mile. Fast-forward six years and with only one other album to their name – 2007's disappointing Proof of Youth – their mix of old school hip-hop, indie guitars and restless playground-style chants seems slightly stagnant. Rolling Blackouts has its moments, and there's certainly enough here to suggest that founder Ian Parton hasn't forgotten how to write a catchy hook. Ready to Go Steady is breezy 60s pop, while Best Coast's Bethany Cosentino adds her sweet croon to Buy Nothing Day – but it's all overly familiar. Clattering opener T.O.R.N.A.D.O. may feature a typically frantic rap from de facto frontwoman Ninja, but the initial thrill pales on further listens, and not even rising rap star Dominique Young Unique can liven up the predictable Apollo Throwdown. Six years is a long time in pop, and the Go! Team seem to have grown old.
